How to Avoid Rape - 13 Ways
It is a very unpleasant truth that more than thirty percent
of all women will be the victim of a rape or sexual assault
at least once in their lifetime. Despite the statistics,
there are things you can do keep from becoming the next
victim of a sexual predator. These 13 tips can help you live
more safely:
First you should think about the things you can do to
increase the level of security around your home. What kinds
of things can you do to make yourself a less appealing
target? Things like self defense training and installing new
locks are just the tip of the iceberg. Second, think about
what you do when you are out. Look for ways to be safer when
you are out shopping late or when you get off of work late at
night. Concentrate on your surroundings and be prepared for
the worst. Finally, you need to realize that date rape is
real, and it can happen to anyone. Not all rapists sneak
around in ski masks. Most of the women who are raped know
their attackers personally.
13 Tips:
1. Replace light bulbs around the outside of your house, and
call to have streetlights replaced in your neighborhood if
they are not working.
2. Keep hedges and other landscaping around your home neatly
trimmed. If they are overgrown it will be easier for someone
to hide in them.
3. Keep everything locked, even when you are home, and make
it a habit to lock your doors at home and your car doors
too.
4. Use a door with a peephole to check who is at your door
before you unwittingly open it up to a stranger who intends
to do you harm.
5. When it's dark out, draw your blinds or curtains so that
people can't see inside.
6. Install safety chains on every door so the door can't be
pushed in on you.
7. Learn Self Defense so that you can walk with confidence
and learn how to protect yourself from attackers.
8. Pay attention to everything that takes place in your
immediate surroundings. Don't let someone sneak up on you.
9. Avoid dark alleys and other poorly lit places like parks
and parking lots. Walk where you see lots of other
pedestrians walking.
10. If you can avoid walking alone at night, do it. Call
someone to pick you up or walk with a group of friends.
11. Don't go to strange places. If you need to call for help
it's imperative that you be able to describe to police
exactly where you are.
12. If you go to a party, don't let anyone bring you a
drink. You never know what they might try to put in it.
13. Don't leave a party or social gathering with someone you
don't really know particularly well if you have been
drinking. Instead, call for a cab or see if a friend or
family member can pick you up and take you home.
